Is there anyone out there in netland that can explain why my Compaq
286/12e Model 40 beeps 3x with 1 long beep followed immediately with 2
short beeps, then continues to bootup normally? It doesn't create any
more problems except attempt to entertain me with all that bootup
noise every time I turn the Compaq on. Thanks!
